Cam Newton: "It's not about me" - Panthers.com

The setting didn't hurt, either. This was the same stadium where he won a national championship in college, and played his first NFL game. And after talking so much about Moses in his re-introductory press conference, Newton laughed and noticed he was in the desert in front of a bunch of fans known as "the Red Sea."

"You can't make up a lie this good," he said.

Newton kept going back to the message of being one of 53, and wanting to be a part of the greater whole.

"I'm here for a reason, and that reason is to hold everyone accountable," rattling off a list of players and coaches. "I'm no different than anyone else, and I want people to hold me accountable. I think the thing I've learned as growth, who cares who gets the glory? When you get a game like this, we all win."

Rhule knows how this one will be perceived to the outside world, and he wouldn't be pinned down when asked who'd start at quarterback next Sunday against Washington. He praised Newton for being "selfless," and talked about the way he celebrated on the sidelines with Walker, whose role is interim at best.

But Rhule also knows there's something about the potential of adding a playmaking quarterback to a team with a defense as good as this one, and when it comes with the kind of shine Newton brings to every interaction, that's a bonus.

"That was fun today," Rhule said. "Let's let it be fun."
